JCB Live Wine Styles: We Have Spirit, Yes We Do | French 69, TRUFFLE ROYAL and JCB Cooler Cocktails

Описание: We are getting into the spirit of the week with and are excited to share some different cocktails that were inspired from some top sommeliers around the country.

JCB Spirit Recipes:

FRENCH 69
*when you double. I’d go down to 1.5oz of gin. At 2 oz, it’s a bit strong to me. 5oz of bubbles – glass ½ full.
1 raw sugar cube
¼oz fresh lemon juice
1oz JCB Gin
JCB Nº 69 Brut Rose
Luxardo Cherries to garnish
Using your favorite champagne flute, drop the sugar cube into the bottom of the glass. Add lemon juice and JCB Gin, gently stir. Top glass with JCB Nº69 Brut Rosé. Garnish with 2 Luxardo Cherries

TRUFFLE ROYAL
From Heather Thompson, the lead bartender from The Cruise Room in Denver.
1.5 oz Truffle Vodka
1oz Dolin Blanc
.5oz sauternes
Stir on ice, strain into a chilled coupe
Top with a splash of extra dry or sec sparkling wine
Garnish with thyme and a lemon twist


JCB COOLER
Compliments of Jon Arroyo, Managing Partner of the Farmers Group in Washington DC.
2 balls of cantaloupe
*depending how “ripe” aka flavorful your cantaloupe is, I’d maybe add 2 balls to the muddle. It is very flavorful, 1 is good
2 slices of cucumber
5-6 mint sprigs
¾ oz lemon juice
½ oz ginger juice
*I used 1 Tablespoon roughly chopped ginger – it was good
1 oz simple syrup
2 oz JCB vodka
Splash or club soda
In a mixing tin, add cantaloupe, cucumber, lemon juice, ginger and simple syrup. Muddle ingredients; add vodka and ice. Shake vigorously and fine strain into a Collins glass filled with ice. Top with soda water and stir. Garnish with melon, cucumber and fresh mint.
*overfill the glass with ice, so a little is popping out the top. Then pour the mixture from the shaker, so it is 7/8 full with a cocktail, and top the last 1/8 with soda/sparkling water.
